I hear you man, there's an aweful lot of bullshit going around that I just don't plain care for, things like writing shit on my tombstone without me...or my family's permission...well that'd piss my soul off big time to be honest. I'd haunt their asses to their ****in' graves for that crap. I intend to die a meaningful life, and that life won't be spent purposefully only to have the leaders of my nation to tell me what I died for. I'll live my life however the hell I want to live it, and I'll die for whatever the hell I want to die for. Really twists me the wrong way to hear about "mishaps" like that. That's why I don't watch the news.

Canada's startin' to look better every day, not only would I be free from that crap but I'd also get to use the snow filling my doorway as a fridge when I got snowed in, how awesome would that be?

Lol. I took a chance and clicked view post, since I have you on ignore. I was not, at first, able to discern if your response was sarcasm or not, but I appreciate it nonetheless.

That last part made me snort my milk I was drinking

Agreed. Hard to watch that one imo.

Platoon ruins my day if I allow it to be watched in my presence. Willem Defoe dying as he did, is sorta a metaphor I guess to this stuff.

Sad. truly sad, the world in which I claim to be free. If only it was free of selfish badge-wearing bastards.

Just make sure you move FAR north on the east coast. I'd be lucky to get snow on Christmas here on the west coast.

And I agree completely with your post, SOT. It's not like they actually CHOOSE to be over there or not, and now their families don't have a choice about their tombstone? Bullshit.

Rather than world domination, I bet Bush is preparing to conquer the moon. I mean, look at it, ripe for the taking. Weak military, weak airforce, and a non-existant navy. OMG IT WILL ONLY LAST A WEEK

*10 years later*
"We may have made some mistakes in the invasion of the moon. We didn't expect such guerilla resistance, and the man in the moon caused us considerable trouble. BUT we have a backup plan. It is well-thought out and cannot fail. We SHALL INAVDE THE SUN!!!!!!11!11!!one!!

We are very "sorry" for the losses to military families. Your sons, daughters, and pets died protecting our freedom from gross lunar tyranny.


I'm sorry, but the entire military wing or whatever of our government is completely moronic (but they do love subliminal messages )

Something else happened to me earlier. My cousin that I had mentioned in the OP, his wife called mine earlier in the evening, and they had a conversation.

Since he died the way he did (how is not important, i'll simply say it wasn't an enemy gun, which is more than enough to upset most people of sanity), the government had refused her to see his 'box and flag'. As hard as it has been for her, she agreed out of respect for the government and policy.

Well, earlier tonight, she called my wife, hysterical, telling her that they 'lost' him.

LOST HIM. HIS BOX. HE IS IN IT. THEY CANNOT LOCATE IT.

Need I say more?

I am sure the next thrilling installment will be they deny he was in the service or some other xfiles-themed bullshit to keep PR up there enough to justify NOT impeaching his hick-ass.

Yeah, I mean as much as I enjoy being an asshole, even I'm not THAT much of an asshole. I'm an ass around here because my best friends and I are used to the whole insulting eachother "all in good fun" thing, (I'll ask everyone here not to take any smartass/semi-insults here seriously for those reasons), but I mean...well I've got a lot of respect for the dead (and the dead's family)...it just pisses me off to all sorts of extreme to hear about things like this.

SOT, have you read Catch-22? If not, these derranged shadow and dagger techniques that the government is using now completely follows the theme of said book. I suggest you read this if you have not.

Back on topic: It is sad that a government has enough power to cast a complete shadow over its failings by denying all press and media coverage of certain articles that would ruin its image. I fear that the time is coming soon that we, as a people, may have to invoke the Right to Revolt clause in the Declaration of Independence. *Gets out AP Gov book." Go John Locke and his influence on American Democracy!

"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes . . . But when a long train of abuses and usurptions, pursuing invaribly the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such a Government."

This is politics man. bush aproval is lower than ever but mothing much we can do and if any one mentions Karry i will incinerate them with flames cause our choices were sh*ty and sh*tier. The truth is that we cannot pull out of Iraq because we destroyed it and it cannot function on its own. We should have done what we did in Mogadishou, Somalia. Send in Special Forces capturing key leaders of the enemy and destroying the heiracrhy. In the whole thing we had less than 50 losses. If anyone does not know about Somalia go read Black Hawk Down not the movie not the game the book. It will change your opinions of the troops that fight in wars and their bravery.

Oh for CHRIST'S SAKE CAN'T YOU PEOPLE WISE UP?! This is a POLOTICS FREE forum -.-

This forum is for talking about Guild Wars or anything related to it, those are the rules. Even here in the off topic forum, we have RULES. No polotics or rascism are the biggest ones, and yet still today people post their stupid ass opinions on a worn out topic every day. WTFC about your opinion on how the world should be run? NOBODY! So wise up, clean up, and realize: NO POLOTICS.

If I read another polotics thread I'm going to kill a kitten.

I second that!

Edit: looked up the rules and didn't find what echosex said but i did find this which most people are guilty of:

Do Not Abuse The English Language
This is a message board, not an AOL chatroom. As such, you have all the time necessary to articulate your posts in a coherent matter. "You" is only two more letters than "u", it won't kill you to type them. Completely illegible posts are subject to moderation - and I can't guarantee their accuracy of 'translating' the authors original message, if you get my drift. When one punctuation works (like a ?) instead of 10 (like ?!?!), use one.

Well I must say that piexags, your last post helped me understand you much more clearly, and thanks.

I posted this thread because it is off topic and absurd, in relation to guild wars. It specifically states to post NON-GUILD-WARS shit in here, so i did, and naturally, pisstakers appear from the walls, and the deluge begins.

I am losing faith in this site. When I first joined, I was amazed the member count was so very immense. I noticed shortly after that most of these people are never around, or post one liners in pics threads, and otherwise never pseak. So be it, their choice. Then I notice the same 35 or so people who actually seem to participate in more than their own threads, which gives this place a charm for me, and keeps it interesting.

I have tried to not be a pain in anyone's ass (within reason, for when I see reason being ignored, I WILL speak up), and it gets more inane by the day. One minute a thread is sensible, tactful, polite, and even disagreements are somehwat civil, then, 1 out of the same 5 or 6 asshats appear and everything goes straight to hell. It is ALWAYS 1 of the same 5 or 6 gems of idiocy who throw a thread.

They do it on purpose, they do it often, and the keep getting more verbally asinine about it and yet nothing is done, except my threads get closed, or someone else's thread they invaded gets destroyed. Taking it to pm does nothing to stem the ever-rising tide of madness, because only 2 or 3 mods appear to ever DO anything, and when those 2 or 3 mods actually DO something, the usually leave a comment so we know they were there to fix it. The others seem to be logged in at all hours and at random, but I never see the post anymore at all.

This thread was about something I wanted to share that I hoped someone out there in game-obsessed-non-realityville could relate to on a human level, and to express my outrage at a subject that is not fun and games, and it NOT political so much as personal to me and mine, and once again, assclowns turned it into a anusprobe circus of idiocy and sad, putrid brainpans.

I take comfort in the knowledge that when their time comes for the airlock, they will wonder why, and no one will care. You know who you are
